Early Christian Art

Famous quotes containing the words early, christian and/or art:

    Quintilian [educational writer in Rome around A.D. 100] thought that the earliest years of the child’s life were crucial. Education should start earlier than age seven, within the family. It should not be so hard as to give the child an aversion to learning. Rather, these early lessons would take the form of play—that embryonic notion of kindergarten.
    C. John Sommerville (20th century)

    Oh come home soon, I write to her.
    Go screw yourself, is her answer.
    Now what is that, for Christian word?
    I hope she feeds on dried goose turd.
    Robert Creeley (b. 1926)

    It is the test of a novel writer’s art that he conceal his snake-in-the-grass; but the reader may be sure that it is always there.
    Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
